Tres bien ensemble

I've got the funk. Not the type a person might want. The opposite, actually. I've been pretty worthless for a couple days now. I spent yesterday afternoon in bed feeling sorry for myself. It's very strange for me to get sick. It doesn't happen. I'm insanely proud of, and cocky about, my mega-resilient immune system. Yet, I succumbed. I'm not sure how I contracted this super-strain, but it can go back to wherever it came from. I have too many, far more important things to do than deal with it. For example, sewing this skirt.

My copy of Sewaholic's Hollyburn skirt arrived in the mail yesterday. It's my first Sewaholic pattern. I've heard and seen so many great things about Tasia's designs that I knew I wanted to participate in the upcoming Sew-Along, hosted by the lovely Rachel, at MyMessings. I'm pretty thrilled to start working on this project. This skirt is going to be a perfect wardrobe building staple.

And, yes. This marks one pattern in... so I also need to dedicate some energy towards sending ten of my existing patterns on their way. Stupid resolutions.

So sorry you've got the funk! It's going around Virginia for sure! That pattern looks wonderful - a classic style for sure. I'm anxious to hear how it goes. I haven't sewn for myself in years but would like to get back to it. Thanks for the inspiration!

I'm so sorry you are under the weather!! That's no fun at all. Three of my kids were sick last week with one of them missing that entire first week of school. I got it last Tuesday, but seem to be doing a bit better now.

I can't wait to see your skirt - the fabric you choose and everything!
